Rawr in the New year

Chinese New Year was a blast. =)
I had a great time.

Happy Tiger Year everyone!

It wasn't so much on the new clothes or ang paus,
but the time we spent together,
whether with family or with friends.
CNY somehow gives us the perfect reason just to meet up and renew our ties. =)

I love you peeps. =)

It was also this time of joyous feelings that i was constantly reminded of the impermanence of life.
How vulnerable, how weak, how uncertain.

The dragon boat tragedy in Penang left my heart with a hole,
it wasn't just some news in the papers.
This time, it was much closer than you think.
It struck nearer to home,
and the fact that my cousin was a good friend to the victims only made it worse.

And then it was the road accident one of my high school junior was involved in.
Still in coma, and showing no signs of recovery yet.
He is the same age as me,
and as I'm blogging,
He's struggling to survive.
Life really isn't fair is it?

And then you ask:
What can we do?
The answer? Nothing.

We can never stop death from invading,
but we can make life a more worthful one.

You have heard this a hundred and one times,
but I'm going to say it again.

Live like it's your last day.
Live like you're dying.

Tats wat Kris allen says too okayy? =)

Live with no regrets.

And while you're at that,
do tell your loved ones how much you love them, okay?

Give them a kiss.

Or just squeeze them hard. =)
