Prawning

Today was supposed to be a get together to meet up with Eva, however the prawns became more intriguing than Eva. Haha.
This was me with my first prawn. I had a prawning spree initially, within the first two hours I managed to catch 10 over prawns. That made me going for more prawns and that also ended my spree.
This was Eva and Wai Leong with their largest prawn.
This little lady got so interested with prawns that she doesn't want to leave them alone.
This was a group picture of those that were present.Our two largest prize. They had tried to crawl away and there were punished heavily.
The punishment was as such!! We were so cruel.
End state of our prawns. We barbecued 24 prawns in total.Barbecuing Time.

I learnt quite a bit of my camera today, my friend had educated me on the flash intensity. I am so loving photography. This was a unintentional photography that I took which I thought was quite artistic.

JM's Departure

It is new year though, but new year are not technical breaks for people to rest entirely. Jian Ming had to leave to some isolated place for work.
This was us missing each other so much.
What lovely couple!
Me at plucking orange.

Well, it was a short trip for him, so nothing much to miss. Haha.

Hatred

I had a conversation with one of my friends at work today. It goes like this:

Friend : Are you going to the cohesion on the 23rd?

Me : Nope

Friend : You really hate this unit don't you?

Me : Actually not really....

When the "not really" came out of my mouth, my feelings soured with all sort of emotions that will spoil a relationship. I guess my answer to his question should be "Yes I do really hate this place."

I am kind of upset writing this post because I cannot really pin point what was it that made me hate this unit!

Was it the people? Hell no, it was the people who kept me going in the unit.

Was it the job perhaps? But I do get lessons learnt taking up an appointment two ranks higher than me!

Was it the culture then? Maybe the culture is forceful onto people, but I survived. Perhaps that is why I hate this place? Perhaps I hated the process of survival in this unit.

Clueless, am I? I ain't even sure?

Learn and Forget

When I was about to take this picture, there was a Hyundai Tuscani right before me and my friend was like exclaiming: "No! Don't take the car!"

So I was explaining that it is not the car that I am interested in, but the colourful buildings. Tuscani is so common nowadays and it is the cheapest of all sports car.

But this friend brought me a point that I had known, but was forgotten deep inside of me. It is to understand people and be more attentive to individual.

I am quite certain I am very attentive to environment, but not to individual. I have always thought that to allow people to open up before I can talk to them, but I never thought tat I should be the one driving the topic in order to get them to talk. It is like "In order to gain respect, you must give respect".

Sadden to forget things, however that is human nature. As much as you learn, you will forget others.
