Smitten with My Lovely SamSoon


I don't know what went wrong with mebut i actually went to spend like S$38 on the OST for My Lovely SamSoon.... which I accidentally found out that there is a OST 2 ..... hahahaha... (here I come.... : P)


All the tracks inside are just so enchanting and soothing...felt like a revisit to a few years back when I was so obsessed with the Taiwan series, "Liu Xing Hua Yuan - Meteor Garden with F4 and Shan Cai..." Bought the whole set of the 2 series as well as their respectively OST...

Hmmm, just can't get over the romantic scenes and the handsome dudes in my head....

Maybe its stories of seeing the dramatic changes in these guys who had carefree, bossy attitudes who will do whatever they please and whose hearts were so completely won over by the least possible girls. These guys fell heads over heels in love with them, surprising not for their looks and appearance... Was her cheery and optimistic disposition the reason why the moody male leads had turned around with romance instead??? Loving the female leads with feverish passion...

Its a sweet and funny show, reflecting bits of the Korean mindset and thinking in the pursuit of the perfect romance.

I guess miraculous love stories are still very much capable of fuelling and tugging at the lonely hearts of today's society who may seems to possess the best of materials but lack the quality aspects of a relationship.

Ages....

It has been ages since i blogged. the past few weeks have been really really busy. Besides the regular MJ sessions that we had, my mind is practically just on work, coming back home every evening - take care of the mess the dogs created, have dinner with Ah Kee, rest early and wake up to go work. It has been a rough ride since, and i forsee that to be the situation for the next coming months.

Not too sure if it has been mis-expectations on my end about the job which i had accepted last Dec... the new boss and work environment that i had embraced with full conviction. The solid confidence has since been chipped off by little little events and developments. Was the leap really too wide a gap for me to reach? It set me thinking if i am really suited for this job as a career path. But then again, i have been gaining various areas of satisfaction from work, deals closed, new connections made, new exposure gained...

Was it time again for a career move???? I've learnt through the hard way that 5 years is definitetly too long a duration to stay at a single company if there is not much of progress. But 1 year???? seems to be too short huh... Trying to grasp as much control as i could, how do i give myself that opportunity to push on when i wasnt about to be given that opportunity by others. I gathered that there is only so much that is in my control, there's only so much that i can do, for myself, my pride, my job.

Sometimes i really feel that humans do make things difficult for themselves. No challenges - - - life is boring and stagnant, there is no achievement or sense of satisfaction. Too challenging - - we are so stressed up that we couldnt operate at the optimum level.
I will take this as another learning experience since i left comfort zone with RE. Life may be better, pasture may be greener but hey, let's be practical and realistic, we will hit bald patches and hallucinated scenes of loveliness and well-being.
Luckily for me while i had my darkest moments of emotional caved-ins, i found myself having multiple hands and paws supporting me in semi-darkness (where even i couldnt see what's up ahead, whats around me). But those were warm comforting holds who took turns to support me. They gave me strength to push on and perserve for better opportunities and life to come by...
So i am telling myself that i will do the best to my ability, treat my loved ones well. We may leave behind a great reputation, a great name... but hey, these are eventually all memories, at most remembered for just a while. Come end of the day, we all end up in ashes, dont we?
I dont want life to be only be monetary gains and possessions. I want to be at peace with myself.
