"Why must we all conceal, what we think, how we feel
Must there be a secret me, i'm forced to hide
I won't pretend that i'm, someone else, for all time
When will my reflection show, who i am inside"
Christina Aguilera

How true. Well, at least for me.
Had dinner at Fish & Co with a friend who is working in SIA as a flight attendant last night. It was his belated birthdy treat to me. Food is great.
But, there was a point in time i felt despondent (I learn this word from Sarah's blog. I love being with Sarah, being with her is like education itself.) in the midst of our conversation.
Then my phone rang. It was almost like magic.
It sound so familiar. And it came at the right time. And It was the first voice i heard right after i was born.
"Boy ah, are you coming back home this friday?"
That itself made me rather emotional. Haven't really talked to my mom for years if i can recall. But she called at the right moment. I needed that comforting voice right at that very moment. Though i may risk bursting out in tears. haha.

There's this special affinity i feel right at that moment that makes her my mom, and makes me her son. I just couldn't explain.
But i'm sure everyone who's reading this knows how it feels. :)
Went clubbing after dinner at Zouk. Too packed. Regretted paying tat 20 bucks for barely able to vibrate on the dance floor.
In attendance: Me, Shu Hui, Alvin Loke, Chuiling and friend, Peggy, Norman, Shaowei, Darren and many others.
No more Zouk during peak periods. Amen.
Today, went church to pray over whatever happened earlier days before. Did abit of reflecting as well.
I used to go church not being able to feel anyting. But just now, while i knelt down and was praying, for the first time, i felt a gentle breeze hovering around me!
It happened twice at two distinct points of my prayer.
I think i know who that was. And i thank Him, for sending that zephyr of comfort and acknowledgement.
And Special Thanks to Aaliyah-lookalike for spending the afternoon wif me at JP for lunch and "whines". ;)
