It is 11 am in Singapore, and both Shimin and Zahra are in the room sleeping; one in the bed and the other in the cot. I'm finishing up my breakfast coffee. Breakfast was peanut butter sandwich - which took 1 hour to prepare and consume, cos ZZ awoke and needed a bath, and a feed, etc, just as I was about to remove bread from packet. I eventually ate after ZZ was bathed. I've been asked often in

There has since been 3 feeds and one major diaper change, and I still hadn't begun writing it.)(It is just past midnight in Singapore now, and I have decided to split this into two notes, cos I need some rest.

You are the light of my life. I would endure anything for you. There is only you and me in the end.

A couple of years ago, I made an admission on this blog about a problem I knew I had but had been avoiding. That was a landmark for me. But unfortunately it was not followed up constructively. That was a mistake. For the problem actually festered, swelled and literally almost led to the end of my life. Well, I might have exaggerated a little there, but not by much. For many reasons, all of

Lately, I've been asking myself the perennial question that has plagued me for the longest time.  Who am I, really, and what exactly am I here for? I cannot pinpoint any particular reason for the revival of this question. It's a terrible question for me, because it is becoming increasingly obvious as I grow older, that I have a very low, and fragile self-esteem and self-worth.  Asking this

I'm watching ip man 2 now, to round off the weekend before I sleep. WARNING, if you haven't seen the movie yet, you might want to skip reading this note.  Minor spoilers ahead. I was watching the fight scene outside Ip Man's first school, where his students and the rival school students clashed over Ip Man's refusal to pay the monthly fees to the martial arts association. Suddenly, I realised

I'm at the EP now for a report launch. It's a bit curious why they've decided to do this here. But that could jus be me. I get irritated sometimes when they do this kind of grandstanding. Ugh.

I went home for 2 nights last weekend. Arrived on Friday afternoon and left on Sunday afternoon. Stayed at the Fullerton cos I did not want to inconvenience my brother in law. Despite the short time, I managed to squeeze in quite a few activities. But the best moment was after breakfast on Saturday morning, dozing off in bed with my wife. I felt so light and free and rested. All sleeps should be

I wake up, shower, eat something, and go to work. I am driven and determined to make the day useful. If its the weekend, I tell myself to find something I really enjoy and go do it. Have fun. Make a good time of it. At some point during the day, a dark shadow draws over me. I begin to lose interest in what I am doing, and what I have to do. I have to push myself to get it all done. It drains me,

I heard this song the other night being played by a cover band in Abu Dhabi. Hadn't heard this song before that. Man, someone up there must really like to arrange for the right songs to be played at the right time when I really need them.  I've been pondering a lot of things lately. As I tend to do.  I am sure I am not the only guy in his late twenties pondering career, relationship, family

I hope the trip goes well. I hope your work is manageable. I hope you don't get too lonely. I hope you will think of me. I want you to know that I love you. I always have. I want you to know that I will stand by you always. I want you to know that when I am hurt, I am hurt because I feel for you. By today's end, it would have been 30 months since we took our vows. Happy anniversary

I like helping others. I really do. My friends, my relatives, the people I love and cherish. It helps make me feel warm inside. But the one person I do not know to help is myself. And I have many bad periods. What I cannot figure out is - why? Especially given that I know myself best. And I have demonstrated to myself that I refuse to back down in the face of the strongest professional

I have been facing some very tough times in the past few months. It was a mixture of personal and professional frustrations and disappointments. And being caught up in the whole situation, I let it all build up internally. What I should have been doing was to vent and let out the negativity. If at all possible, consider constructive approaches to the problems. But its hard to do that without a

I believe it was late 2000 that I came up with this nickname/screen name, which I have been using on several websites which require usernames. That was my second attempt at a nickname which stuck. The first one has endured as well - lexancer. lexancer came about as by mixing Alexander (a reasonable translation for my real name) and Cancer (my zodiac sign).

Its a question I have been pondering long before I started this blog, and had not committed unto the printed or written word prior to the blog as well.Since that beginning, I have had ups and downs in dealing with this question. I have withdrawn into a deep personal space which I do not share with anyone. It was only a few years ago that I began to open the door just a little bit. But I kept,

The latest work week has just begun - not momentous news really, just a fact of life. I have been absent from this space for a noticeable space of time - long enough for one to believe that this blog is well and truly dead.A certain fear crept over me some months ago. I cannot put my finger on when exactly, but I do know that the essence of this fear is the escape of the secrets I want to keep

I did not care much for football as a child. We're talking some 20 years back now. When I did start following the Premiership, I was first a Man United fan. I was influenced by my brother. If Dad had been able to spend more time with me watching football (he had to earn for us), perhaps I might have been a Spurs fan.One day, I saw a team beat Man United on the opening day of the season.

I am somewhat resigned that things are the way they are, and not what I might want them to be.Please don't read the above statement negatively. What I wish to affirm is that rather than being bogged down by feelings of unfulfilment and discontent, not to mention sulking over how things are not how I would like them to be, I would rather move on and do what I can with what time I have.

I'm still in the preparation stages. I have yet to decide what will take place and how. But I do know that it will be the essence of my selfishness - i.e., its all about me. Of course, this being a public domain, you are entitled to have your own free views. But know from the start that this is my personal indulgence. Cryptic? All will be clear soon...

It is my belief currently that most individuals, at some point in their respective lives, become concerned with what kind of legacy they leave behind. Its not something that is restricted to only celebrities, politicians and leaders.There is this Thai commercial, which is somewhat popular.

While ironing my shirts today, I watched the DVD of Bon Jovi's Crush tour. Its about 8-9 years old or so now. Got it courtesy of kitty's trip to Singapore for work recently. Crush was the last Bon Jovi CD I bought. It wasn't the first - that honour goes to These Days and if I correctly recall, Crossroads, bought together.

There are few of us who are not members of facebook. And of course, I am not one of those few. The earliest draw of facebook for me was the invitations from my old housemates in Sheffield. They weren't on Friendster, so I rejoiced at being able to get in touch with them again.Facebook makes space seem a little less wider, and distance doesn't seem to be that big a barrier for friends, old and

I was a big fan since moonwalker. And my love for you was great enough, that I ran out and use my pocket money to buy your double cassette tape of HIStory. But I confess now to going with the crowd - when accusations on you surfaced. I believed in you, and I always have. But I thought it was better to follow the crowd in condemning you. Do I seek forgiveness or closure in this admission? No.

My weekend is pretty much ending here. Dubai One is showing The Two Towers right now, which we're watching.Today was all about Miumew. You could say she was the climax of the weekend. Which began last Thursday evening as we had some friends over for dinner. It was a good meal which took time to prepare - but well worth it. Good post dinner fun too. Except that to my chagrin, I discovered the

Simba - happy one year anniversary to u and Nala. I remember ur wedding fondly. including the part where i tried to help organise photo taking of tables in a semi inebriated state.On a personal level, if its one year for Simba, it also means its one year now since I left home for work. I don't look back with too much satisfaction, but will look forward with hope in my heart and fire in my hands.

Now, I don't always do this, but I kind of need a reminder for myself.I predict that for the next one month, the number of H1N1 cases will continue rising by a rapid rate, and a rising mortality rate. Perhaps the worldwide total will be just below 200 (it was 112 as of last Wednesday according to WHO website) within this time.Following this one month period, infections will not stop - but the

Not a thing about the holiday, not a thing about the madness of work, not a thing about nothing, anything and everything. Was I tired? Was I lazy?

Then again I pull pranks regularly enough in other months beyond April. One big visit has come and gone. Another one is on the horizon. The last one left me thinking.

Yes, I did. I scoured the surfaces, taps and tub with Mr Muscle and a sponge. I felt very proud and accomplished for what I had done in but a short time.  I like Mr Muscle.  Spray and scrub, and off the stains go. Amazing.  Tomorrow evening, I hope to do the kitchen surfaces once I get home. I'm leaving the major thing - vacuum and mop - till the weekend.  On a separate note, I confess a distaste

Fighting is a big part of my life. I suppose much of my life has been defined by the adversities I've had to overcome. Back then I probably thought my problems were the biggest in the world. However, even as a young boy, I knew that I was not alone in finding life difficult. Some of us had support networks, some did not.I will say however, that I made things difficult for myself then.

A teacher from long ago is now battling colon cancer. He's on chemo. Fighting hard against the odds and statistics. He remembers me. I remember him. Well. Not the best of scenarios in which to reacquaint myself with someone from the past. Nonetheless, I was happy to be in touch with him again. Fight on Mr L.

It is nearly one month into 2009. So much more ahead. Personally, I want to be able to wake up earlier and with more energy every morning. To find purpose in life.Right now, it seems that negativity pervades in so many areas. And its not easy for me to escape that negativity sometimes. I can't help but feel like I am helpless to contribute to making this world a better place.Hence I wake up

Ran 10 km in the Dubai Standard Chartered Marathon earlier today. I still have a visceral memory of having to respect the distance from my last experience with the Singapore Standard Chartered Marathon in 2007. So this time I trained. Based on my training, I expected to do about 1 hr 30 mins. It may seem a little slow for most, but I took into account the fact that my training runs averaged 1

Is something that I have always aspired too. While I have heroes, the most prominent of which is Superman himself, deep down, the one person I want to be is myself. Being comfortable in my own skin, and doing the things that mean something to me.It is a challenge in that I often do not feel that peace of mind which comes with being myself.

When anyone asks me that, or engages me in conversation as to how I am, the answer I invariably give is that things are not easy, but in general I'm fine. I don't use these exact words, but in my mind I know thats the very message I intend to send with whatever words I decide to use. Most of the time however, that answer is probably far from the truth.

It is a terrible time for our world. Not far from where I am now, there is fighting and killing. Even closer suicide bombings are taking away more lives. Fairly recently, Singaporeans mourned the loss of one of our own in a violent attack that to most, should appear senseless. All over, people are dying directly or indirectly, by the hands of others. Is it that chaos has engulfed us? Or is that

While waiting for a guest to arrive at the EP on Tuesday evening, I heard the sounds of a school choir carolling by the Christmas tree they had set up in the hotel. The usual standard. Then somewhere in the middle of the meeting, I heard a familiar tune that brought a rush of emotions and memories I had not thought about for some time. I was transfixed, lost in warm reminiscence.

I've been zoning out a lot recently. Its like I'm stuck in moments I can't get out of (words courtesy of and due credit to U2). The last trip to Singapore honestly did not feel like much of a break. I believe that was partially due to mismanaged expectations. And I really should know better than to let myself get deluded into believing what I imagine can be truth. To quote Stephen King's Duma

Today, I commemorate 5 months on post. And I finally dragged my ass down to NBAD to open an account.

3 years on in the job, I've done a number of appraisals. Appraisals, I have to admit, breed a certain sense of fear and apprehension in me. I confess to never knowing exactly what to talk about, and all the different sections elicit a throbbing headache and a sense of stupidity which overwhelms. Given my experiences since I moved on, it only added to the sense of apprehension and fear.

I'm going to sleep early tonight. Save for an extreme moment of weakness, I should be able to meet this target. Its been a tiring few weeks since I have returned. I nearly got derailed by my ownself again. Its so easy to just kinda lapse into not trying to live. Its an inherent weakness of mine. The life I have now is way beyond what I imagined. That applies to both work and personal life.

They launched a new channel today. MBC Max. At the moment its looking nice and shiny and exciting, as new channels do. Spiderman is on as I type this to be followed by Spidey 2.Enjoy it while it lasts I suppose.

I wonder if the truth of wisdom and knowledge is going to catch up with humanity only now.I wonder this because I'm curious if any work that most of us do today is actually meaningful. And by us I mean anyone who is doing some kind of office job. In the larger scheme of things, what is it all about?Or am I just belly-aching? And could it be I am not in the minority in this instance?

Tonight, I drink the last glass from my fourth bottle of Black Label since I arrived. Just one more to go. Which makes the upcoming trip home all the more useful.

Just over three months later, I find myself still tripping over how the weekend days are different here. The week ends and begins a day earlier. Its been an easy weekend, much by choice. Thanks to the excessive amount of reruns on TV, I got to watch the last episode of Season 1 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer last night. And as I am typing, the first season of Angel is beginning.

I bought me an ipod nano the other day. 8GB version. Silver. The decision maker was that prices had not changed in Singapore since before I left for language at the start of the year - but I had found a minimally cheaper one in Lulu Khalidiya Mall.I wish I knew where the nano purchased from Roldie was. I liked that nano very much. And it saved me from boredom, fatigue and giving up at the

I sprained my ankle on Thursday night. Its the first time I sprained it simply walking. Which is somewhat worrying.I have had to confront some major issues, individual ones and more. Tears have been shed, fears have been faced and talked about.I was just talking with my wife about tears, and how I don't really know how to sob and cry anymore. The most I can do is shed a few tears, and it takes

It was a real shame that the purported corpse of Bigfoot turned out to be nothing more than a hoax. Perhaps there is no real mysticism in this world. Myths and the intangible remain in the realm of that we can only dream off, and will never be anything but dreams.Things do just happen. Any reasons that do exist need not become clear immediately. What must be clear is what we set out to do.

I had a lazy day off today. Read some stuff at a leisurely pace, watched tv, got the car washed.Spent some time thinking. I wasn't planning to do that much thinking this weekend - was looking to spend time with my wife. things work out on their own though. news which is necessary but not welcome. tomorrow i return to work. thinking back to a morning three years ago - it was love at first sight.

I'm presently thinking of adding a shade of red to my hair. But its rather short now, so I suppose there would not be much point to it. Will revisit the issue when its longer.Had a cancelled dinner tonight. Which wasn't so bad seeing as how I had no appetite for dinner following a big lunch. I find myself pondering the same old questions and reviewing the same ground again. Probably because I

That was a cheap publicity stunt, or unabashed milking of a phrase which has gained much popularity this year. But no, I am not going to talk about the US Presidential Elections coming uo later this year. Or any of the candidates. Not that I'm not interested in it, but I ain't in the habit of political commentary. Not in this space at least.The only constant with me is change. But at the same

Unhappy as I feel sometimes, I do know and accept Singapore is Home, truly, as my senses tell me. Where I belong, where I keep my heart and soul.Speaking of my heart and soul - music is such an integral part of it. I would not feel alive without music.And with that, I give you two more

Maybe its an example of how to make someone like something just by exposing it enough times to them.Nonetheless, I give to you, Fire Bomber's Seventh Moon, the opening to Macross 7.And of course, this would happen to be my favourite Fire Bomber Song - Holy Lonely Light! (spoiler alert! - thats if like me, you're outdated enough to have not watched this anime till now)

Looking at Guttercat's site somehow makes me feel divided. I'm not there as the girls are growing up. K and R are much more available godparents. I do love them kids though. When Siobhan was born, I remember rushing down to KK, and feeling that pride. It was one of the first trips I took on my bike. I did let work get in the way. And I could just spared more time thinking about them than

I like walking. In any weather and any situation. Today, that habit nearly undid me. We're having a long weekend here. Yesterday was a nice day of rest. Today met some people for lunch at Shang Palace. It looked really nice out, so I parked a short distance from the Hotel's main entrance. Following lunch, I enjoyed the walk back to the car.

Today I fulfilled something yet another of a long time dream of mine. I have always been a fan of KFC. Since young. A three piece meal of crispy chicken is like - erm - best comfort food for me. Safe to say its probably part of why I gained about 20kg so fast after starting work back in 2005.I had always wondered what it would be like to be able to gorge myself on KFC chicken and nothing

We have an intern at the mission right now. He's our second. Our first has come and gone. They are very different people, these two interns. They each have their own strengths and weaknesses.

The past two days have been tiring and trying. Its not even work thats the main culprit this time. Things just suck in general. The number of things cocking up left right centre is enough to drive me mad.I would have succumbed already - if it wasn't for one big difference. Namely, at this point, I have a new source of strength, represented everyday by what I think of as a ring of power on my

I remember when I was signing up on Friendster, there was a section where I had to list my favourite movies. Back then, I listed a few films and would update the list every once in a while. Years later, signing up on Facebook, I could not be bothered to enter the same details. One way of looking at why was that there were just too many movies I liked to list. And it did not seem appropriate

I returned to the desert almost 4 weeks ago now. There is still much I have to do. Mostly because I've been trying to hard to hit the ground running. The mentality is still stuck in a previous phase. Plus I've not been overtly productive for over 8 months. I have faced some challenges, from work and from the personal angle. I'm pretty proud to say that for the most part I have overcome them.

Well, the three day wedding Shiskandarstravaganza is over. I was quite tired by the end of it, and a little bit heartbroken that my father's relatives decided, save for 2 first and 1 second cousins, to boycott the wedding, for I had chosen for a civil and not an Islamic wedding.However I hold fast to my beliefs that God and religion is primarily about love, and not hate.
