xkcd - Lego

Nope, I believe the house doesn't just disappear. It lives on in the memories of those who have seen it. It impacted whatever it needed to and served whatever purpose its maker had for it. Even if the house existed for just a short while, it is more than pieces of Lego waiting to be dismantled and made into other objects. It is more than pieces of Lego waiting for oblivion.
So, where do we go after this life on earth?

相思
经过圣安德烈教堂，看见撒落在地的相思豆。突然想起中学年代曾流行以相思豆传达对心上人的心意。当时常有人打听捡相思豆的好去处，而一份简简单单以豆制成的卡片，便能带来甜滋滋的喜悦。

当年当豆如宝，如今却不以为然。

可能是有了消费能力，就忘了礼轻情义重，礼物的价值就仅仅以物价衡量。

可能是年纪大了，就忘了亲手为心上人制作礼品的喜悦，在忙碌中，选择了在商店购买使用物品为礼物。反正，他也不会欣赏相思豆传达的心意。

突然觉得有一个欣赏简单情意的对象，是一种幸福。

Cycle II
Inspired from non-recent events (yes, XP, you can stop reading between the lines):

There are many times I am tempted to confess my feelings for you, knowing jolly well that there is a high chance of rejection. Why not just clear the air so that we can start on a fresh slate, without you guessing if I like you, or me wondering whether we could be more than just friends? After all, the fastest way to subject a crush to relationship hell is to really nip it in the bud.

Yet, when the words are on the tip of my tongue, I swallow them, force a smile and carry on as if there isn't the greatest war raging in my mind.

I guess there is the tiniest bit of reservation left that holds me back, a minute grain of tradition dwelling in me and forcing me to let the guy make the first move.

And also a reluctance to let this non-relationship die too prematurely. After all, if I don't say anything, you won't have an opening to reject me, right?

Then I convince myself I am not asking for you to reciprocate, and that I am happy caring for you in this one-sided manner, so there's no need to rock the boat.

And so I let it slide, until the next time I am tempted again.

chocolate and nuts
Inspired from something I said very long ago...

You can be sweet, you can be bitter.

You can be full of surprises.

You are addictive just like chocolate. I crave for you.

Too bad you have no nutritional value for me (emotionally).

Too bad I am nuts about you still.

basic maintenance
Plucked eyebrows, went for manicure and pedicure, and did a foot treatment to get rid of the cracked heels.

This is just barely scratching the surface of basic maintenance, just to look presentable sigh.

Age and money spent on vanities certainly has a direct and even exponential relationship :(

An adventurous day
Saturday was pretty much a new-experiences-day, with fitting in the early part of the afternoon and Forest Adventure at Bedok Reservoir after that.

I had been looking forward to the ropes course but it was only I got up the tree to try the first few obstacles did I realise actually the experience could be quite scary.

I think I was stuck at the Site 2 obstacle for a full 5 minutes before I dared to even lift up the second leg to place it on the swing.

It's almost a mercy when the lightning alert went up. (And my speed in turning back and stepping on the 3 swings to land on the platform was amazing... Hahaha...)

Even then, I am looking forward to returning and completing the course!

Grand et beau II
I found a reason for doing it.

For the chance to look and feel pretty. Met 3 other girls yesterday and the organiser of course. Their enthusiasm, especially Lela's, the easy way we started chatting and learning more about one another, the fun we had in trying clothes and helping one another made the whole experience enjoyable.

But most importantly, the feeling that goes, "Hey, I can look like this!" is priceless.

Thanks, Erica, for giving us the chance, and for believing in the idea of a community :)
