change.

i'm one of those girls who would still wanna remain frens with my ex. Because until the very end, you couldn't deny the fact that we still care. only differently. and the memories couldn't be diminished. yes there were ugly times, but there's always happy times as well.

for me personally. i realized that from every major crush or heart break, from every relationship and heartthrob, i'll always walk away with a little extra. *tat time ya la...heart breaking and crying la!* but after that... i would always realized that every single one left me with smthg extra to gain.

from cux, it was all bout growing up, learning to take control of my life coz i was so effing young. from sloweed, it was planning and passion, and ultimately having a partner who is matured and steady to work with. from zab, it was art and i'm proud to say he contributed to the fact that i'm taking advertising right now.
with xuan, it was definitely priorities and responsibilties as he was my 1st major long term relationship. i was busy juggling studies and spm and family and frens.
james made me grow up. to become more understanding and to accept that some things are jus the way it is.
one more thing i realised caught up with me recently was a building (nt HUGE...just building) interest on sports. particularly badminton and basketball.

frankly i wasnt very keen on "chasing" the olympics this year... i din even see the opening...heard it was spectacular... so was my company tat night! :) so no regrets.

but i watched a lil. grins.
i managed to hunt down the badminton matches yday.
i was stunned by yday's m'sia-indo match. (jumps! nearly choked over my dinner)
against defending champion taufik sumore... O.O
Choong Hann stole whole the show in all the evening matches la.

The 31-year-old appeared to be the fitter of the two last night and you can sense the heat from the start. the first game was....TIGHT... omg...kanchiong~ but after winning the first game, he jus went on to seal the deal on the straight game.

amazing~ too bad its gonna be his last Olympic liao.... :( *i silently like him morethen chong wei la*

the m'sia-singapore match was not too shabby either.
started off kinda wobbly...until chong wei gained his rhythm la...
den it was smooth sailing..
lets jus hope he'll go all the way la...
being the star player and all... :)

and seeing that ronald (sg) was the one that sent the chinese top gun lin dan out during olympic athen 2004. i sure do hope the chances are high... :)
Sunday night's basketball was another number.
star of the night? who else but the NBA player yao ming!
on the way walking out of the court, he raised his fist in the air as so thousands and thousand of fans cheered. he was limping and wobbling as he made his way to the bench. safe to say it was a spectacular and historical night for china.
he made it happen.

it was so surreal. come to think of it. yaoming was the icon that gave china the the grand entrance into the world.
but to watch him limp and flail, trying so hard to even catch his breath was to understand the reasons with which his sense of obligation to china that brought him back so soon from another broken foot, another surgery. he was a miracle to say, how can a body with such built be so agile and fast? even his lower body couldn't sustain his weight and size, two broken feet, a broken leg and an infected toe. It breaks your heart to watch what has happened to him.
China monitored his birth because of the perfect physical and athletic genes of his parents, thus making him forever the science project. China has been training and working him to the gound. With the NBA matches, theres the olympic and even frequent matches with his national team during the non-olympic years. anyone can see that he needs to rest. he has done his part for china. i wonder when is it going to end.
