Wednesday, December 26, 2007 Uh..huh
Well, look and behold, the new skin. Uhm... it isn't really fantastic, is it? Oh well at least it wasn't as bad as the previous one where you had to type in commands to navigate, disaster, that was. That made me lose the little bit of will to blog I had left in me and I'm glad I finally got rid of it. Now, to the real blogging thing. Yesterday was christmas, and as in the tradition of my not very awesome life of 16 years, my family didn't celebrate it much, and it was more or less a normal day. That could have passed off as a pretty sad ending for this pretty boring post, if not for a certain distant relative whose identity I'm not entirely sure of. Why thank this unknown relative, then? Well, for reasons unexplained to me, she decided to have her wedding dinner on christmas, that is, yesterday. Which is why I ought to thank this mysterious relative, for providing me with an oppurtunity to do something out of my normal routine for a change on christmas day. As with most wedding dinners, it wasn't particularly interesting, unless you count weird women in weird dresses and weird hairdos interesting... come to think of it, I should've taken a picture of them to define "Weird". Oh well. Turkey wasn't among the 7courses, either, quite contrary to my expectations, it was christmas after all. And the wedding cake wasn't a log cake, Pfft. Anyway, I suppose its polite to thank my cousin for being a mildly interesting form of entertainment throughout the dinner, which otherwise would have been horribly boring. Oh, and a picture.

I finally figured that I don't have to greet anyone when I'm recording down my own thoughts. Topic:子曰：内省不疚，夫何忧何惧 Been watching百家讲坛于丹《论语》 on channel U, and have learnt quite alot from it. Planning to start reading the 《论语》 soon, I just hope I manage to drag outself out of my laziness and start on it. Anyway, 内省不疚，夫何忧何惧 is basically the most basic condition for attaining the ideal personality in 《论语》, which is 君子. 于丹 has given her own intepretation of this sentence, which I find extremely enlightening. But why, out of so many of those cheem words from the show and 《论语》, why this? Cos it makes me think bout myself, and how far away from君子am I, and how disgustingly close to 小人 I actually am. When I reflect what I've done I never fail to feel guilty. Guilty of what? Guilty of wasting time, guilty of using harsh words on people, guilty of spending money excessively, guilty of not doing my best at literally everything. And so much more. It makes me think back you see, truly reflect. And while I run through what I've done in the pass, I realise how many people I've missed. There have been people whom I've liked very much , and would've liked to get closer to. But for certain reasons (I'm blaming plain stupidity, arrogance, and unfriendliness here) I let them slip out of my life because of my own petty and strange thoughts. Yea... arrogance is kinda like my trademark trait, isn't it. What a sad life. Sigh. Lets hope reading the 《论语》will make me a better person and save my life.

Its been awhile. Though nothing meteoric has happened within this period of time... there still might be something worthwhile to blog about, so I shall put it up here to give the illusion that this blog is not dead and uninteresting. So, about how I spent the weekend. On Saturday, I went the Show Luo's concert, where Rainie Yang was the special guest. And on Sunday, I went for Rainie Yang's autograph session at bukit panjang plaza and after that I went down to another Rainie event. Therefore, I would like to call this weekend the "Rainie weekend". I shall not go on and on about how awesome the concert was, and how cute rainie was during the concert, since you won't be able to get the picture anyway. So I shall skip to the next day. Being S.H.E trained, I went to start queueing for the autograph session at 5:45AM. And I remained there till close to 2pm, before getting onto a cab not to go home to get some rest, but to rush to the next event. Sounds tiring? Not exactly, it was quite exciting, since I was 2nd in queue, being in front of even the fanclub. You can say I was pretty close to the stage, maybe nothing more than 2metres. I don't suppose you'll need the details of the autograph session, like what songs rainie sang, and what dance did she do. Incidentally, the important part of an autograph session is, somehow, the autograph! I have not pictures of Rainie herself (no good ones, at least, even though i was up close i didnt have a digi cam), but I do have pictures of this single, most important part of the autograph session, the autographed album. And here it is.  Autographed. This shall be added to my collection of autographed albums, which includes this.  Can't see the autograph? Can't blame you, really, I can't see it myself unless its really bright. The previous autograph session I was (as usual) one of the first and the pen wasn't working properly and the autograph came out screwed. Crap. So anyway, after going for the events... I have found even more reasons why Rainie is 2nd on my list, only next to S.H.E. She's and angel.
