A song written by Reuben Kee En Rui, 'Back Home'.
Back Home
There's a place that you will always know
It is where your heart knows it's home
And if you need to run from trouble or despair
It is where to go
Run back home
I went faraway to see the world alone
To places in my dreams
But the best dreams came when I was dreaming them at home
Every bird sees the sky as its home
To just fly and be free is a joy
Each night I have dreamt of being free to fly
But I've always known
The sky is not home
I went far away to see the world alone
To places in my dreams
But the best dream came
When I was dreaming them at home
The best dreams came
When I was dreaming them at home
Back Home
《回家》
你会永远知道有个地方
就是你心里的家
如果你要逃离烦恼和绝望
那就是你要去的地方
回家
我独自到很远的地方去看世界
到我梦想中的国度
但最好的梦只有在家中做梦时才会浮现
鸟儿把天空当成家
能自由飞翔就是一种快乐
我每晚都梦见自己能像自由地飞
但我永远知道
天空不是我的家
我独自到很远的地方去看世界
到我梦想中的国度
但最好的梦
只有在家中做梦时才会浮现
最好的梦
只有在家中做梦时才会浮现
回家

you can listen or download his piano composition for this song.
I'm deeply saddened by the news of the dragon boat tragedy. It is heart wrenching to see the lives of 5 promising young men being lost so tragically. I pray for the 5 families to get through this tough period.
The news was more shocking upon hearing that one of the missing 5 rowers of the Cambodian dragon boat team is Mr Stephon Loh, a PE teacher from NJC.Although I don't know him personally, I often see him around in school and vividly remember his presence.The way he walks,talks,laughs and smiles is still fresh in my mind.NJ prayers go out to him and his family.
Life,as a subject,still perplexes me very much.
One moment you are here,one moment you are not.
曾经同舟，难再共济。
Friday's dinner was spent at Thai Express (city hall) with some of my dearies after work.
Thai Yellow Curry with Potatoes
the company ((:
well,it was supposed to be a birthday celebration for dear fu,but she had an important family dinner to attend to last minute and lay was unintentionally not informed. it then turned out to be a catch-up session with jen and ahma. The food wasn't that great,but the company was!
i'm in the office now,taking my lunch break.
it has almost been a week working in mitsubishi corp.
the working environment is nice,people are friendly and approachable.
the workload is not too heavy either. I just have to key in data entry for sales,fax them back,answering calls,signing,filing and photocopying of documents and that's basically the summary of my day.
a big headache over prom,cause i've to plan when to do shopping amidst my working hours.and yes,i haven't taken leave yet.I hope my manager will approve it without any unhappiness.rah.
back to work.ciao. ((:
你的姿态 你的青睐
我存在在 你的存在
你以为爱 就是被爱
你挥霍了 我的崇拜
i went to the market in the morning with my auntie and I caught some acrobatic show going on right in front of the market. According to my auntie, they make regular performances in the neighbourhood,but somehow this was the first time i witnessed their act. I was quite impressed.

final pose!
The first day after As, I found a job and baked a cake. It was a relatively fruitful day. I'll be starting work this Monday at Mitsubishi Corporation LT Singapore Pte Ltd, at Jurong Port Road. I'll be doing data entry and admin stuff.quite looking forward to start a whole new job experience!
ahhh.my orange cake.This cake is quite special, as it needs NO BUTTER AT ALL. imagine the carbo and fats saved! It uses the puree of 3 fresh boiled oranges. Quite a perculiar experiment to begin with.after securing a job offer, i came home and embarked on a new baking experience too (i didn't have to doodle with the mess that is often attributed to butter).

the blended oranges!

i started adding the ingredients in...
.jpg)
the machine is blending all the ingredients furiously.

the final mix! the "dots" are actually ground almonds.
.jpg)
the aftermath!
.jpg)
the end product. looks a little burnt!
.jpg)
yea.ready to eat.. ((:
anyway,my family had mixed responses towards my orange cake. my mei and auntie like it, my mum and dad find it too sweet (although i reduced the sugar from 230g to 200g) and my dajie is somewhat neutral.
tired but happy.
I'm officially DONE with the big 'A'.
The feeling is quite surreal though. I do feel a bit out of place with stacks of notes surrounding me. I'll have to clear my study room soon!!
to all my dear friends out there,hang in there a little more! ((:
