Low .. and High

This is the mtv version of "Low" by Flo Rida feat T-Pain


This video has some scene from Step Up 2. I like this song, and can't wait for the movie to come to town.

Found this other videos of people dancing to the song ...

Typical classroom routine.


Look at the kid go, she will grow up to be a great dancer.


I like this female group version ... sexy!


This song "Low" is making me high, I want to dance too!

Avengers Assembled ...

It was just another animated movie, The Ultimate Avengers II. I grew up reading Avengers, a hobby which occupied by schooldays and more. I knew Henry Pym, aka Giant Man, aka Antman, aka Yellow Jacket. He was a colourful character who personified different superheroes in his career, mostly with the Avengers. So when he died in the movie, I felt sad, a tinge of tears in my eyes.

I have stopped reading comics a long time, I had to cut down my expenses back then, and till now, I only bought a few of those hard edition. I do miss reading comics, experiencing their lives as if I was part of them. I am sure other comics fans do as well. Time and time again, I wanted to start buying them, but I know once I start, it will be hard to stop, months after months of waiting in anticipation of the next issue to come out. And searching bookstores if one doesn't have that month issue. And the money that will be kept specially for my collection. It was an experience that I treasured as part of my childhood memory, but I don't want to start going through it again. I must be satisfied just catching the movies, animated or otherwise.

That said, I am looking forward to Iron Man, the movie, coming soon to our cinemas. Hopefully it will be as spectacular as Spiderman. For the record to those not familiar with the Marvel Universe, Iron Man is one of the Avengers at one time or another, the Avengers being a dynamic superheroes group whose members constantly changes.




As the leader of the Avengers will shout to rally the members: Avengers Assembled!

Step Up Again

Step Up 2: The Streets is coming. I can't wait for the movie. This time the attention is on the female lead, Briana Evigan


Can't wait to see her dance. And oh yes, her as well, she looks hot! kekeke

Set Menu and Buffet

Thai food has special significances in my past. Also it reminded me of Phuket.

Yesterday we had the buffet lunch at Siam Kitchen at Suntec, where the dishes came out in small plates, about 15 dishes in all. Yummilicious.


It was nice, though some dishes wasn't as nice as previously when we were there. My dear mentioned Swensen's ice-cream. Maybe I could swop the 15 dishes for 15 scoop of ice-cream, and it will be all for myself haha.

The day before, we had the teatime set at Secret Recipes. The cakes was good.


I noticed ladies having it too, though there were guys, but they didn't order the cake set. At the entrance, I could see some ladies stopped to read the promotion standees. In the past, I have also heard female colleagues suggesting going for afternoon tea, or lunch get-together. Too bad I am a guy, and never was invited as it was a "girls thing". I have never heard any guys arranging to go for tea, always for football games or some "guys thing". Me, I like afternoon tea, or shopping, usually included as part of the outing haha. Too bad I am a guy.


Set meals and buffet are good opportunity to sample food at a cheaper prices than they cost if order off the menu. Whoever came out with the idea, thank you. I love you for that haha ...

Live it

I have an inferiority complex, not because I am, but because people make me feel this way, everytime they reject me as a close friend, without giving me a chance. They may ignore me, deny me, but they can't take away the fact that I still care ...

People tend to be selfish, doing things if it benefits them. I don't want to be selfish. It doesn't matter if it doesn't benefit me if I do things for others. I do it because I want to. Call it a gift or call it a curse, that I don't get anything in return. But in a way I do, as I feel satisfied that I have helped someone.

In this world of insanity, maybe that is all that is sane to me. It is a gift I have, the only power that I have. No super-strength or the ability to fly, like Superman. Or the agility of Spiderman. Just a simple power of giving .. giving of myself.

I like to breeze through the crowds, avoiding contact as I swirl and twist my body to avoid them, like I will when I dance. I like to climb stairways going at two steps at a time. It may not be superspeed like what the Flash can do, but I enjoy the wind on my face as I move swiftly. Maybe that is also part of my gift.

I see life from the outside, and I feel it. Life is short ..... live it!

my sanity or insanity

An entry for me ...

I appreciated that time I had with Nd on Sat. It is not often that I get to have mealtime with Nd, was glad she asked me along to join her friends. I had a good time, though I wished it wasn't so short, but a little time together is better than no time at all. But I know such opportunity will be few, that is if there is any more. I don't want to have any expectation. I will only be disappointed.

I am missing Su again, the last few days. Not easy to forget her, not that I want to. I don't know how she is coping with her new baby. I want to ask her, but feel she isn't interested in talking to me. Haiz, why is it that someone so important to me, I can't be friends with?

Sometimes I envy my dear for gaining what I tried so hard to have in the two years, even jealous. I guess I don't have what it has to have others wanting my company. I can only be a person who keeps others company, when they want it, when they have nobody else. It was like that, and that is probably how it will always be. Trying to change my fate the last three years didn't work. So why should I try, as I know it is always so disappointing, to say the least. I have to keep reminding myself this. Or my life will end up being as my blog shouted - insanity!

Cooking for your love

Something I cooked for my dear, with oregano and thyme herbs cooked with her fav zucchini in olive oil. I am getting to be an expert in pasta dishes haha. But it is actually simple to dish up pasta.

So far I only cooked one-dish meal lately, I haven't had the mood to cook an elaborate sit-down meal for quite a while. With dessert thrown-in. Maybe I shall ... one of my off days haha.

I am reminded of that post I wrote some time back, about me wanting to be the cook for my friends. It doesn't matter if I wasn't part of their occasion, just me being there, cooking for them would be enough. I would be happy. It is just a silly wish that will never be. Why should they want me? I don't even have a friend in the first place haha.

Cooking is for sharing, to show your love, and be loved by those who consume your creation.

Gift of heart

Seldom do I receive any gift, and I don't expect any. I am more a giver than a taker.

Nd gave me a gift, two actually. More importantly, I will treasure the thought that came with the gifts. To her, it may be a simple gesture of exchanging of gifts for what I gave her on Christmas, but it warmed my heart, especially coming from her. And made me shed tears. She said it was meant for me, and it shall be, more than the gifts themselves but the gesture she did, for to me it will be the gift that warmed my heart.

I do not need anything from her, maybe her friendship. But she has declined to be my close friend. I will not ask again. All I can hope for is a chance to help her whenever I can.

Fate has been cruel to let me find people that I care for, but prevent me from being their close friends.

Fireballs

It felt like I was on fire, not that I ever was, so I couldn't really know the feeling. But it do seem like a burning sensation. I could move around surprisingly, like a human torch, or fireballs... funny but that was as close as it could actually be.

The pain of suffering alone ...

I wish I could tell her about it, as usual she came to my mind. Who else do you expect to confide with but your close friend ... she could have been ...

What Goes Around ....

Congratulation Justin! In case nobody knows, Justin got a Grammys for Male Pop Vocal Performance for the song "What Goes Around .. Comes Around".


I couldn'g get the mtv, so am putting up this one instead.
Though I listen to his songs and admire his dancing, I wasn't really a fan but after watching his Lovesound concert, I admire him for being a great performer, an artiste who is a musician/singer/dancer. And there are not many like him.

CNY was like any day, I still worked. The rest of the days was spend shopping. I don't have anybody to visit, in a way that is good haha. Lucky for me some shops are opened from the second day onwards.

Valentine's Day is coming, will be working too, so will not have any real celebration. No flowers either, the same as many years before, but will give her flower on another day. V-Day is a commercial event, what is important is the relationship between couple on days beyond V-Day. But I did buy something for her.


What goes around .. comes around. Life is full of circles, if it is good things, that will be nice, but often, things we like to forget, we thought it will not happen again, but it does. Sad.

I felt a new pain ... If only they were there to help, ....

Heels

Anyone read about this article in the newspaper about high heels?

Wearing high heels, although perhaps not stilettos, may improve your pelvic floor muscles and boost your sex life, a new study suggest. Dr Maria Cerruto, an italian urologist, said her research, with nearly 66 women wearing 5cm heels, showed that high heels were not as bad for women's health as some say. Women under 50 who held their feet at a 15-degree angle to the ground, equivalent of a 5cm heel, had posture as good as those wearing flats,They showed less electrical activity in their pelvic muscles, tones the pelvic floor muscles. Among the benefits are they assisted sexual performance and satisfaction (good news eh? haha), as well as provide vital support to the bladder, bowels and uterus.

True or not, we can't be sure, but I do feel woman looks good in heels, well some do haha. Some looks ridiculous when they walk. I do feel that certain dance looks better in heels than flats. And some dancers do dance great even on heels.

CNY or YNC (Y Not Celebrating)

The taxi driver was saying how important it is to know as many language as one can, that an employee who does is an asset.. I agree with him.

It is just that I don't have any motivation to learn. I often want to learn, but along the way, I lost that drive, and so lost a language.

Even my own language chinese is not in me. I don't like to use the language, and now being force to work with it, it is making me dislike it even more. I don't really have any reason to hate it, but then, I don't really have a reason to like it either haha.

I haven't follow any chinese serials on tv for a long time, and I don't feel for CNY, again this year. It is not that I don't get any hongbao, or play firecrackers that makes me lose the festivity, maybe due to the non-existence of any house-visiting. I know lots of people dislike that part, but I miss the fun of trying out the festive cookies in every house. Perhaps that is what will bring back my interest in CNY haha. Funny thing is, I feel more excited when it was Raya, maybe because I was involved in a way, through fasting.

I know I am a disappointment, I can only blame myself for not being what I want to be and should be.
