family dinners are very interesting to be at, well espeically if your with your partner/significant other's family. You learn so much from being there...in the summer i was always at my ex's family dinner. It's really completely different from mine. His family dinners usually were at their houses with home cooked meals. It was like a feast - mostly with western food and some traditional chinese food.
Now his family dinner had all the cousins together having dinner and chatting about their trips or things that were going on in their lives. The adults would have their deserts and coffee and chat about current events or gossip over little things. They were really close to each other and very social with one another despite the age difference.
Now my family, we would normally go out for dinner and my we'd be seperated by two tables. I always end up at the table with the cousins I grew up with, and my parents with my the other older people in the family. If there was a third table, then that would be the remainders of the family or friends that we've invited. Now my family is very segerated from each other. If i sat with my parents for one night I would not have a single clue whats going on and who they're talking about. It's how its always been with my family, the adults would gossip or discuss things that were going on with other family members whom I've never met- or expect to meet. Now at the table I sit with it usually consists of my cousins, my aunt and uncle and my brothers. My cousins usually sit together with the youngest in the middle and they have conversations among themselves. Same goes for my brother, I'm usually sitting there alone with my cellphone going on facebook or texting people to keep me entertaining until the first dish is served.
Occassionally I'd play with my 2nd cousin and take pictures with him. He's a total camera whore - I probably have a whole album dedicated to him on facebook. I guess I'm his favourite cousin? I always played with him when he lived in my basement suite. His dad used to walk him up the stairs to come up to see me, then when he learned to crawl he crawled up the stairs so flipping fast. It was adorable, we would know when he was coming. He would always takes a peek around the turn of the stairs before coming. If he doesn't see us he takes his time, but if he knows we're there he'll power crawl up the stairs. Now his little game of finding me is even cuter. When i would be doing homework and my door would be closed, he opens my door a little and takes a peek. He would giggle at me if i don't notice me right way. When I go he laughs and runs into the door shouting "GUUUU!"
now the best part about tonight
me: " lang gu hai been ah?" (where's your pretty aunt?)

Christopher - Colours
I'm holding on, but I guess not tight enough (no,no)
Not alone, sometimes I feel like I am
Cause when I look in your eyes,
You just seem so far away
[Hook]
Why are colors begin to fade away?
Once so bright but now they've lost a shade oh
Like who knows, what could make them change?
So we gotta find a way to make the colors stay
[Chorus:]
It's so complicated,
Too much grey between us
All the colors faded
I wish that we could be black and white
Our love plain and simple love
So now we gotta find a way to make the colors change
Black and white, plain and simple love again
No more holding on to that damning greys phase
And our love winning colors no more blurry lines oh
But we don't talk about, it won't just solve itself
Why are colors begin to fade away?
Once so bright but now they've lost a shade oh
Like who knows, what could make them change?
So now we gotta find a way to make the colors stay
[x2]
It's so complicated,
Too much grey between us
All the colors faded
I wish that we could be black and white
Our love plain and simple love
So now we gotta find a way to make the colors change
[Bridge]
It's so complicated,
So much grey between us
All the colors bleeding
I wish that we could be
It's so complicated,
So much grey between us
All the colors bleeding
Now instead we could be
It's so complicated,
Too much grey between us
All the colors faded
I wish that we could be black and white
Our love plain and simple love
So now we gotta find a way to make the colors change

from write something
When we are fearful, angry, anxious, unhappy, or jealous, are we truly experiencing a state of love? They sure feel different, don\'t they? Love feels warm, open, joyous and filled with a deep sense of appreciation. Pain steps into a love relationship when you switch it from a \"wanted relationship,\" into a \"needed relationship.\" You don\'t NEED any one relationship. Want? Yes. Need? No.
If you go into a relationship not feeling terribly good about yourself, you\'re more likely to become dependent on your partner to help you feel good about yourself. If we felt empty before they appeared in our lives, we fear the emptiness returning if they leave, so their staying with us becomes paramount. That dependency can create all kinds of fear and unhappiness when there\'s a perceived threat to you staying together.

《想講你知》 MV - G.E.M. 鄧紫棋
即使 誰人要去阻止
行為有幾放肆 言談有幾諷刺
想講你知 無人能亂我所思
從來更加理智 毫無退縮之意
想講你知
咪高風將心聲也告知 台上唱唱我的故事
偏偏喜歡指點側邊無聊事 流言蜚語更加注意
無謂太多說話
其實你知 OH I DON'T CARE
I DON'T CARE
無論再多蔑視
其實你知 YES I DON'T CARE
I DON'T CARE
即使 誰人要去阻止
行為有幾放肆 言談有幾諷刺
想講你知 無人能亂我所思
從來更加理智 毫無退縮之意
想講你知
花光心機扭曲我意思 然而當作最新發現
幾多故仔都肯去構思 全部喪智也失正義
無謂太多說話
其實你知 OH I DON'T CARE
I DON'T CARE
無論再多蔑視
其實你知 YES I DON'T CARE
I DON'T CARE
*即使 誰人要去阻止
行為有幾放肆 言談有幾諷刺
想講你知 無人能亂我所思
從來更加理智 毫無退縮之意
想講你知
即管繼續 無端惹事
(來) 反正亦全沒意思
該有陣時 管你正事
CUZ YOU CANT HURT ME!
Repeat **
即使 誰人要去阻止
沿途太多暗箭 仍然放膽應戰
想講你知 無人能亂我所思
從來更加理智 毫無退縮之意
想講你知

nomnom nom nom
This entry has totally nothing to do with food, I just didnt have a better title for it. Any ways, if life had a back space button would you abuse it?
I am confident that I will keep pressing that button until the ink fades off. I do admit that there has been things i regret doing and I desperately want to hit the backspace button on. Thinking back at the things I've done over the year - 2009 is probably the year where I want to SLAM on the back space button. Well part of me wants to do it, the other part of me wants to go back in time and slap myself.
But, in reality we all know that's not going to happen. As much as we would love to travel back into time and figure out some of life's greatest mysteries - for those who always want to discover and learn new things or we want to know how our what ifs'.... would turn out if we did something differently. I have two big what ifs, if i ever get the chance to go back and see the outcome of the what if, I'll probably go back and try out the one back from high school. It doesn't matter to me as much any more but I'm geniunely curious how things would of turned out. The biggest one on my mind is "would it ruin my friendship?"

The Truth About Diet and Exercise
"Q: Doctor, I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this true?
A: Your heart only good for so many beats, and that it....don't waste on exercise. Everything wear out eventually. Speeding up heart not make you live longer; it like saying you extend life of car by driving faster. Want to live longer? Take nap.
Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables?
A: You must grasp logistical efficiency. What does cow eat? Hay and corn. And what are these? Vegetables. So steak is nothing more than efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system. Need grain? Eat chicken.. Beef also good source of field grass (green leafy vegetable). And pork chop can give you 100% of recommended daily allowance of vegetable product.
Q: Should I reduce my alcohol intake?
A: No, not at all. Wine made from fruit. Brandy is distilled wine, that mean they take water out of fruity bit so you get even more of goodness that way. Beer also made of grain. Bottom up!
Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio?
A: Well, if you have body and you have fat, your ratio one to one. If you have two bodies, your ratio two to one, etc.
Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program?
A: Can't think of single one, sorry. My philosophy is: No pain...good!
Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you?
A: YOU NOT LISTENING! Food are fried these day in vegetable oil. In fact, they permeated by it. How could getting more vegetable be bad for you?!?
Q: Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around the middle?
A: Definitely not! When you exercise muscle, it get bigger. You should only be doing sit-up if you want bigger stomach.
Q: Is chocolate bad for me?
A: Are you crazy?!? HEL-LO-O!! Cocoa bean! Another vegetable! It best feel-good food around!
Q: Is swimming good for your figure?
A: If swimming good for figure, explain whale to me..
Q: Is getting in shape important for my lifestyle?
A: Hey! 'Round' a shape!
Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets.
And remember:
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - wine in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!!"
AND.....
For those of you who watch what you eat, here's the final word on nutrition and health. It's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting nutritional studies.
1. The Japanese eat very little fat
and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat
and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
3. The Chinese drink very little red wine
and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
4. The Italians drink a lot of red wine
and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
5. The Germans drink a lot of beer and eat lots of sausages and fats
and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
CONCLUSION:
Eat and drink what you like.
Speaking English is apparently what kills you."

BITCH SLAP *slap*
Your result for The Personality Defect Test...

Bitch-Slap
You are 29% Rational, 14% Extroverted, 71% Brutal, and 14% Arrogant.You are the Bitch-Slap, the hallmark response of any abusive husband! You are more intuitive than others, focusing more on feelings than rational explanations, and you are also probably very brutual because you care more about yourself than the well-being of others. As all nagging wives know, brutality combined with emotion often leads to BITCH-SLAPPING, which is why you are called "The Bitch Slap". (That and because I find it amusing to accuse people of pummeling female dogs.) Your humility probably stems from insecurity, if anything, because people fond of slapping the shit out of someone in place of rational discussion are usually not humble in the way Jesus was humble. Possible sources of insecurity? A small penis, a small bank account, a small intelligence...gee, when you say "small" a lot, it stops sounding like a real word! Not only that, but you are also rather introverted, and any tendencies towards brutality you possess may also result from the fact that you bottle up your emotions and don't show them to others until you explode in rage like some sort of shaken soda can. Take it from me, it is much more rewarding to bottle beer over emotions. You can't get wasted on emotions. Aside from all my talk (and it's a lot of talk) you are probably not a VIOLENT person, just someone who is rather selfish and who makes decisions based upon emotional motives. At any rate, being a bitch-slap does not necessarily mean you will abuse your spouse (your body odor is no doubt abuse enough); it only means you are rather intuitive, uncaring toward others, brutal, introverted, and possibly insecure.
And sorry about that body odor remark if you really are insecure. I promise that you smell like roses. Being fertilized by cow shit.
To put it less negatively:
1. You are more INTUITIVE than rational.
2. You are more INTROVERTED than extroverted.
3. You are more BRUTAL than gentle.
4. You are more HUMBLE than arrogant.
Compatibility:
Your exact opposite is the Braggart.
Other personalities you would probably get along with are the Schoolyard Bully, the Class Clown, and the Brute.

If you scored near fifty percent for a certain trait (42%-58%), you could very well go either way. For example, someone with 42% Extroversion is slightly leaning towards being an introvert, but is close enough to being an extrovert to be classified that way as well. Below is a list of the other personality types so that you can determine which other possible categories you may fill if you scored near fifty percent for certain traits.
The other personality types:
The Emo Kid: Intuitive, Introverted, Gentle, Humble.
The Starving Artist: Intuitive, Introverted, Gentle, Arrogant.
The Bitch-Slap: Intuitive, Introverted, Brutal, Humble.
The Brute: Intuitive, Introverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

Emo Songs
I guess we all have a song we like to listen to when we're feeling down, or just having one of those days. Well after going through all my songs on my itouch, I realized I have quite a few of them and there's a few I tend to listen to over and over. Most of them are by either Composers, people who write songs and sings demos for other mainstream artists, mainstream and yes, asian singers.
So here they are, in no particular order. I might end up listing them in the order my itunes plays them in. So first on the list is,
Andrea Martin- All the thanks I get
cos no matter what i do /it's always my fault /and this is all the thanks i get
Epik HIgh - 1 minute 1 second
Jordan Sparks - It Takes More / Andrea Martin - It Takes More
(Same Song, but I prefer Andrea's voice)
No more waiting for you to change / Don't you know that you bringing flowers / Won't stop the rain baby no, no (uh-oh) / Don't you know it takes more /You're the only one not worth waiting for
Claude Kelly - It's not fair
it's not fair (not fair)/ it's so wrong (so wrong) /you're not here /when all i did was give you my all (my all) /while mine breaks (mine breaks) /her heart you hold /i guess my love wasn't enough to keep you home (home)
Daniel D - The Truth
I know so many time and many times before /Love has only let you down /But i swear i’ll give you so much more..
Beyonce ft Lee Carr - If I were a Boy/ If i were a girl
Epik High - 1852 (Paper Cranes)
Jason Chan - 你瞞我瞞
Alex Fong ft Theresea Fu - self deception
Kary Ng - 分手要狠
