Today while waiting for my special lunch mate at foot of Somerset MRT escalator, three balding old men casually clad in shirt and berms walked past me to take the escalator, sharing some "life views" among themselves... And left me with some uncannily-timed "advice".
(Non-Verbatim)
Old Man 1: It's very important to keep a positive outlook in life...
Old Man 2 (agreeing): You should never feel sorry for yourself. Even if/when you feel sorry for yourself, nobody would feel sorry for you...
I only managed to unintentionally eavesdrop on two/three lines of their conversation, then as they ascended to above ground, I couldn't catch anymore of what they were discussing... But somehow I was rather eerified, cos like just when I had been feeling somewhat negative about certain things seems like someone decided to drill some wise words into my worry-warty brain...! I think it will work some, esp also after dear Miss W also took time off her very busy schedule to give me some wise "scoldings" hehe :P
So I shall put in more effort to count my blessings! Blessing no. 1 was little act of kindness by ph2. Who yesterday out of blue in middle of afternoon came over to my workstation and offered me half a cut and "cored?" apple. Like suddenly so nice to me (actually she has always been nice to me though she always pretends to bully me), so for 15 min I felt very 幸福 :) And blessing no. 2 was the successful 'debut' of the nice little tennis gang :)

Alas, my little mac poll has closed. And 24 inch iMac wins! But I still undecided.... Strangely no one thinks I should buy a macbook... Perhaps I shall go check out Sitex tmr with sis to see if I can sniff out any good deals :)
