Tell me what men think

I'm having serious problem guessing whats going in a man's head. Men whom expect you to understand, men whom doesn't want to speak their mind, men whom constantly run fast and expect you to catch up!!! It's weird, I always figure women are complicated creatures. But it looks like men are closets locked up with double locks, doesn't want you to get your eyes on whats inside. If they are happy, they unlock a drawer, and for once you see something. Now you think you'll get the key to other parts of the closet. But no, you are wrong, they only allowed you to peep into one, thats purely one. Don't even think about peeping into the keyhole!!! Women are said to be emotional creatures. But hey, men are just closed closets locking up all their emotions.

I find it very difficult, I need an open closet.

Freakin' cold

I was on my way home last night. My watch showed 20 00. My usual hour at 18 30 was undeniably delayed due to some online business. I was holding tight on my backpack one hand, the other trying to shield myself from getting wet. It started to drizzle. I had no cover, and needing to protect my notebook in my knapsack, I couldn't afford to get drenched. I couldn't run, with that possibility my poor machine wasn't shock-proof. With that speed I was walking, I would have cut down half my usual duration to the train station.

For a moment, I felt that I was back in london.

It reminded me of the cold, the horrible weather. Especially at night, it was absolutely freezing. One of the nights in london, my friend and I were lost in the streets. A lonesome neighbourhood except the two of us, totally lost, stood there waiting at a bus-stop. Checking on the street map for umpteen times, we were arguing about the directions. I guess we were both exhausted and afraid, just trying hard to hide our fear. It was horrible, our second night, and we were sick of getting lost [even with a street directory in hand]. We got through it, got back to the house after over an hour of serious hunting -- almost knocking on the wrong house.

I felt scared at that thought. If I was back in london working till 20 00, the sky would be dark plus its freaking cold. Everyone on the streets hid behind the bus shelter, trying to seek refuge behind someone much bigger. The chill wind blowing in your face and you hate yourself for still being out in the coldness. You can't wait to sit in a bar and have a nice beer or having a warm fish & chips laying on your table or even be cuddling on that couch watching Sex & the city or something...

After 30 minutes of train ride, I alighted, feeling so glad Singapore doesn't frost this time of the year. It rained so often though, accompanied by high level of humidity, it was simply shit trying to get to sleep. Across the road, I looked up at the sky and hoola I'd be home in a minute. And I wasn't freezing...

I'm a fairly good person

Die Franzosen

The 19th Singapore French Film Festival

Here are some interesting ones I'll like to catch:

1. Fureur / Rage
Shot in Paris' Chinatown and Thailand, the film mixes a rich array of cultures.

Manu is a young Thai boxing champion. Upon his parents' death, his elder brother Raph had to give up boxing to take charge of the family business, freeing Manu to follow up his promising boxing career. But when Manu is killed in an illegal fight by the brother of Raph's new love, his retired elder brother finds himself torn by a desire for revenge and the call of love.

2. Le Papillon / The Butterfly
A huge hit in France, “Le Papillon� is a highly entertaining comedy for all ages.

A widowed, retired Parisian sets off on an expedition to find a rare mountain butterfly. A lonely young girl from his apartment building manages to tag along, constantly asking questions, upsetting the tranquility the old man longs for and causing fears at home that she has been abducted.

3. L'Auberge espagnole / The Spanish Apartment

Hindi hindi!!

I feel like I'm celebrating Deepavali because I'm going to Little India later on...

p.s: I've found something about the festival, enjoy. The legend is bit too complicated, so here's something basic!

Note: Below source quoted from www.ammachi.org


India is a land of festivals where you will see at least one major festival each month. Deepavali (or Diwali) which literally means "rows of lamps" is one of the four main festivals of India. Throughout the world all Hindus celebrate Deepavali or Diwali with great pomp and enthusiasm.

The celebration of Diwali lasts six days, beginning on the 12th day of the month of Kartik (as per the North Indian lunar calendar). The day before Diwali, in order to evoke the grace of God, women fast. It is not that God wants you to go hungry or takes pleasure in your suffering - the principle is that you gain only by giving up. That evening, devotees worship Gomata (the cow) and her calf and feed them special food. Women pray for the welfare of the entire family. This holy day is called Vasubaras.

The first official day of Diwali falls on the 13th of Kartik. People set about cleaning houses and shops, and decorating doorsteps and courtyards with rangoli or multi-coloured designs. They purchase gold ornaments, new vessels, clothes, and other such items. Devotees arise early in the morning before sunrise and take oil baths. If possible, they wear new clothes. In the evening, people worship coins representing wealth. Houses and courtyards glow from the lights, and families decorate with lanterns. This day of celebration is called Dhantrayodashi or Dhanteras.

The second day is called Naraka Chaturdashi. People take an oil bath in the early morning and then in the night they light lamps and burn firecrackers. People visit their relatives and friends, exchanging love and sweets.

On the third day, people worship Lakshmi, the Goddess of wealth. People decorate their houses with lit lamps and lanterns to welcome Lakshmi to their home and hearts. On this day businessmen close old accounts and open new accounts. The earth is lit up by lamps and the skies are coloured by the multi-hued lights of fireworks.

In North India, the Govardhana Puja occurs on the fourth day of Diwali. Devotees in the North build hillocks made of cow dung, symbolising Govardhana, and decorate and worship them. North Indians observe this day as Annakoot, or the mountain of food.

The fifth day of the festival called Bhaiyya Dooj celebrates unique and fun customs. Every man dines in his sister's house, and, in return, presents her with gifts. North India calls it Yama Dwitiya. Thousands of brothers and sisters join hands and have a sacred bath in the river Yamuna.

What is wrong!!!

A wanted a dinner this evening. I said,"OK." I sent A a text. Two hours later, A got back and claimed he can't make it b'cos of meetings. Argh!! I'm OK with it since B told me she's free tonight to meet up. I said,"OK" too. I sent her another text. Ten minutes later, B got back and told me she can't make it too as she has to work late to cover for a colleague. So I said to myself "Fine fine." C is a new friend and like to go out for drink sometimes. So I decided to send C a text. C can't make it tonight as well. I'm resigned to my fate. There's no nice dinner for me tonight. Crap.
