Found this on You-Tube... my favourite piece of music from the drama serial! ^^

-IroNically-

My boss asked me this question this morning: "Don't you have friends you can ask?"

I replied: "No I don't... I am fast becoming anti-social you know?"

Ask what you may wonder "ask what?"... Well, its about Choice. And what is Choice?

There you have it... ^^ This was what my boss wanted me to ask my friends about. While I'm really interested to attend Choice this time round, I don't think I can find someone to go with me even if I like to. -Sigh-

Of course, the earlier remark made to my boss about me not having any friend was made in jest. On my way home, I received many reminders from God that I do have many friends around... From ex-colleagues from CGH to TP classmate to TP juniors to TACS member to my dear Kumon students. As I walked into and out of East Point, I met 8 familiar faces. I must say, this is the first time I ran into so many people in the short span of half an hour.

Thank God indeed... For the many people whom He have brought and still is bringing into my life. ^^

Its the season of Love.Joy.Peace.Hope! Spread the festive cheer!

-LaDieS iN sHaDes of piNk-

Guess who dropped by in town last week??? ^^

Gal, I thank your mother for reminding you that we existed. And an email sending me the photos doesn't act as a 'I've arrived safely back in HK" message ok... Humpf...

Interestingly, all 3 of us turned up in shades of pink that night. This is one of those 'magic moments' in our friendship journey don't cha think?
